Trump is openly threatening to imminently launch a massive direct
U.S. attack against Iran. He has issued terrifying threats demanding
the entire population of the city of Tehran -- 10 million people --
flee their homes, and mused on social media about assassinating Iran's
head of state. This war would lead to enormous suffering and death
among Iranians and others in region, and also likely lead to large
numbers of U.S. casualties -- not to mention the enormous wealth that
will be taken away from meeting human needs to feed the war machine.
This could engulf the entire Middle East or even the whole world. In
these critical days and hours, all people who oppose the war
machine need to be in the streets!
Protests across the country will take place tomorrow, June 18, as
part of a national day of action. This day of protest is being
initially sponsored by the ANSWER Coalition, National Iranian American
Council, Palestinian Youth Movement, The People's Forum, and
others.
Already, the administration has backed the brutal Israeli
bombardment that has caused widespread civilian casualties -- carried
out with an arsenal paid for with our taxpayer dollars. But now, Trump
may be on the verge of ordering direct U.S. strikes that would
escalate the war to unspeakably dangerous new heights. U.S. "boots on
the ground" could easily be drawn in, and war could ripple across the
entire region or even the whole world. We need to take a stand and
prevent this from becoming a reality!
After having committed genocide in Gaza for nearly two years, the
Israeli regime is now igniting an even wider war across the Middle
East with its unprovoked attack against Iran. And regime change in
Iran -- which controls vast oil and gas resources -- has been a
long-standing goal of the Pentagon and the State Department
establishment. But the people of this country have nothing to gain and
so much to lose if the warmongers get their way.
